DEEP NECK LIFT
ABOUT
Deep Neck Lift
A deep neck lift is a surgical procedure designed to enhance and slim the contours of the neck and jawline, giving a more defined appearance.
This technique works on the deeper layers beneath the skin and fat, allowing the surgeon to tighten and reshape the underlying structures for more significant and longer-lasting improvements compared to traditional neck lift approaches.
PROCEDURES
Dimple Creation Surgery or Dimpleplasty
A deep neck lift involves:
- Lifting and adjusting deeper tissues beneath the skin
- Reshaping and tightening the deeper neck structures
- Creating a more defined neck and jawline contour
- Performing the surgery under sedation or general anaesthesia
- Procedure duration: 2–4 hours, depending on what needs to be done
Incisions are typically placed within natural creases around the ears, under the chin, or along the hairline to help hide scars.
INDICATIONS
Who May Consider This Procedure
A deep neck lift is suitable for individuals who:
- Have fullness or looseness in the neck area
- Already have good cheek and jawline contours
- Have good skin elasticity
- Wish to improve the appearance of the neck without facial lifting procedures
SAFETY
Risks & Considerations
Complications are uncommon but can occur.
These may include:
- Skin necrosis, especially in smokers (patients are advised to stop smoking at least 1 month before surgery)
- Temporary nerve weakness, affecting facial muscle control (occurs in about 1% of patients)
- General surgical risks associated with anaesthesia and wound healing
AFTERCARE
Downtime & Recovery
Here’s what to expect after surgery:
- Bruising & swelling: about 2 weeks
- Makeup: usually allowed after 1 week
- Suture removal: if required, around 1 week
- Return to work: typically 1–2 weeks after surgery
